Beginning in the next school year, students in Arizona high schools must pass the equivalent of the U.S. citizenship test to achieve their diploma under a new law the Republican-controlled state legislature approved. The first such law in the nation was supported and signed into law on January by Governor Doug Ducey.

To pass, high school students must correctly answer at least 60% of the 100 questions from the civics portion of the exam that new immigrants take. The test includes questions about basic U.S. history matters such as the Revolutionary War, the founding fathers, powers and rights as defined by the Constitution, and American political figures.

Here are 11 sample questions provided by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which requires immigrants to pass a 100-question test to obtain their citizenship.

You must score 60% or higher to get citizenship; but since you already have it, you’ll need 90% to pass; however, you don’t have to tell us whether you passed or not.
